Italy's national grid operator Terna will hold a special board meeting in the coming days to discuss the severance package for outgoing CEO Giuseppina Di Foggia.

Defoggia has been nominated by the Italian government as the new chairwoman of Eni Group, but she is unwilling to give up the €7.3 million severance compensation from Terna. Terna's board held a meeting on Monday, but did not discuss her case. The Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance stated on Sunday that it opposes state-controlled groups paying severance compensation to executives whose terms have expired or who have resigned voluntarily.
